Canon's 5200mm lens. (It's a "Mirror Lens").

I don't think it has IS, though. ;-)

You can get FD-to-EF adapters on eBay.

Does it come with a chair too? The size of the body on the end of it is hilarious.

At least if you bought one you'd be able to live in it too. Probably would need to.

And it's only US$ 23 000.

Put a couple of Kenko tubes on that baby and you can reduce the nearest focus distance to... oh, 60 or 70 meters. :D

And it is cheaper than the 1200mm at B&H.
